Guillermo Del Toro Working on Marvel’s Incredible Hulk Series at ABC with Battlestar Galactica Producer David Eick

Back in October, we got wind of a new TV adaptation of The Incredible Hulk at ABC, and while the prospect itself was somewhat intriguing, the names behind this new series will have you ripping through your purple shorts with excitement.  It seems that the brilliant Guillermo del Toro and Battlestar Galactica executive producer David Eick are in the process of finalizing a deal to bring Hulk to the flickering box. The two will first try to crack the story which will apparently be an origin tale with Bruce Banner being in his mid-20’s, less reactive and downtrodden since at his age the world is still in front of him. Eick will also write the script itself and del Toro is attached to direct, but that detail is subject to his availability. Considering all the projects that man is working on, I just can’t see how he’ll have the time. »
